Congratulations To Wales in qualifying for Euro 2016 I have been totally impressed with their campaign Despite losing to Bosnia 2-0, Israel failed to best Cyprus which ensured Wales's place in France next summer along with Northern Ireland and England, so British international soccer teams well represented. I am sure UEFA rankings will ensure we are kept well apart, but fear Wales & NI will end up in one of the more tougher groups. I think is probably the start of Wale's resurgence an a European football nation and Chris Coleman has done a wonderful job. I think this has to be on a par with their achievements in the old style knockout tournament when they reached the quarter Finals I seem to recall
Hope Republic get a decent draws in the playoffs
^ At least this time they won't be up against the French
.
Holland would be the worst draw they could have, but I guess they would fancy their chances
Holland have NOT - I REPEAT - NOT qualified for the Euro 2016 finals!!
the 1988 Champions lost 3-2 the Czech Republic tonight must be first time that I can remember that they have failed to qualify for either Euro or World Cup Finals
I guess that if LVG had stayed in the job things might have been different....
Whats the betting they will go after Ronald koeman from southampton
I thought hed already had a spell in the job before LVG took over... or would they go for Sven?
Turkey have qualified automatically as the best performing 3rd placed team in all groups thereby avoiding the playoffs.

The last time the Netherlands failed to qualify was for the World Cup finals in 2002.
